Former Attorney General of Virginia Blasts Democrats Over Scheme to Oust State’s Supreme Court Judges: ‘Utter and Complete Humiliation’ (VIDEO)

Jason Miyares is the Republican, former Attorney General of Virginia who served under Governor Glenn Youngkin. He appeared on FOX News tonight and blasted Virginia Democrats over their unconstitutional scheme to oust the judges on the Virginia Supreme Court over a ruling that they don’t like.

Miyares marveled at what a massive humiliation this ruling was for Democrats, especially considering how much money they spent trying to make it happen.

He also suggested that the U.S. Supreme Court would laugh this case right out of court.

Transcript by Sean Hannity:

“This was an utter and complete humiliation for Hakeem Jeffries and Virginia Democrats. They just burned $70 million—$10 million in taxpayer money and $60 million in campaign funds. If they had simply paid attention to the attorney general’s opinion I issued last fall, stating this was completely unconstitutional under the Virginia Constitution, they could have avoided this.

This latest move is nothing more than window dressing to try to save face with donors. It’s going to get laughed out by the Supreme Court. It’s a last desperate gasp. Now what they’re trying to do, as you reported, is push a scheme to effectively remove justices in Virginia. But the Constitution is clear—you can only remove justices through impeachment.

Instead, they’re attempting to do it by arbitrarily lowering the retirement age. It’s an unconscionable scheme and shows how little regard they have for the rule of law in their pursuit of power.”

Watch the clip below:

What Miyares said about the Democrats trying to save face with donors is spot on. Remember that the Democrat party is largely driven by the rage of their base these days. Those people will not accept failures like this. They’re not even rational.
